Hello, new member here and complete newbie in cryptocurrencies world.
I have been reading about cryptocurrencies for many years, but only now decided to start with it.
I'm completely new, I do not have wallet nor any account.
Since my PC is running 24/7 for torrents, I decided to start mining Aeon (Pentium g4560 cpu) in order to support this community and in process learn more about mining and cryptocurrencies overall.
I would appreciate few tips about Aeon if possible, i.e wallet, miner, pool tips for beginners, i.e where to start from.
In the meantime, I will be reading this topic and the rest of forum.
There are a lot links in the subreddit of aeon: /r/Aeon/
Also here the official aeon daemon + wallet:
https://github.com/aeonix/aeon/releasesThe wallet + daemon combo also includes solomining.
1. download the latest release
2. start aeond (the daemon) and wait till it finished syncing and is on the newest block
3. "message appears: you are in sync with the network now, you can start simplewallet"
4. start simplewallet
5. follow the instruction on screen to create your first wallet
6. congratulation you have a wallet and are synced to the network
7. type HELP into simplewallet for further commands
https://wiki.bytecoin.org/wiki/Simplewallet_command_line_arguments_and_commands8. if you want to solomine type into simplewallet window: start_mining [number of threads]
9. if you want to see your current hashrate type in aeond: show_hr (hide_hr to disable it again)
10. if you want to stop it type in simplewallet: stop_mining
11. once you want to close all, type "exit" into the simplewallet. this will save your wallet and close it correctly.
12. if wallet is closed, type in aeond: exit
13. aeond will save the blockchain and closes correctly
hope this helps for the start:)
